What do you like best?
Box makes collaboraiton seamless! With the current landscape, it's important to collaborate efficiently and Box allows teams to do just that! Overall pleased with the software. I also like that the software offers all of the document formats that I work on and look for. I also like that there's a notifications feature that let's me know which updates have been made.
What do you dislike?
Version control would be the main feature that I dislike. At times, it becomes difficult to find the versioon that I am looking for. I also wish that the User Experience (UX) was a bit more reobust. At times I feel like the documents and information that I need can be hard to locate. When I need an important document, it has become challenging. Thinking about how this can get solved. I also dislike that Box can't be a desktop app for neither my PC or my Mac
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recomment people to watch a quick demo - the features can be tricky, but once you learn them, then it's a seamless experience!
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
I am working on collaborating efficiently with the teams I work with on a day-to-day basis. Furthermore, I am able to solve the pain points that other software programs give me. I have realized that some of the benefits stem from being more productive and working with my team members who love to collaborate! When we need to work on a document together, it becomes easier to do so rather than more difficult. Overall, the benefits that I have gotten from Box have been greater than the cons! I recently chatted with a coworker on how much easier our lives have gotten! Even our desktops are less crowded.
